Chasing wildfire

Robert Irwin FanFiction

He was raised in the wild. She is the wildfire.

Robert Irwin has spent his life taming predators, until she storms into the zoo, a new vet intern with a tongue sharper than a scalpel and eyes that dare him to break.

She needs to clean up her reputation. He needs to cool off rumors.
One lie. One fake relationship.
No strings. No feelings.
No chance in hell they're walking away untouched.

Under the scorching outback sun, behind enclosures and beneath stares, the line between pretend and real starts to blur.
He holds her waist too tight.
She looks at him too long.

But wildfires don't play it safe.
They burn.

And when secrets from her past threaten everything they've built, Robert will have to decide what's worth saving, his carefully controlled world or the woman who faked her way into his heart and made him believe every damn second of it.
